race and sororities

This is for all of my fellow girls that don't fit the sorority girl stereotype in terms of race. I remember being in your spot last year and researching the heck out of all of the schools I wanted to go to, wondering if there was any chance I'd be able to "make it" in a historically white sorority. As an AA that rushed last fall at Arkansas, I say DO IT. Most of the sororities here will put you on even footing with everyone else. There are only two sororities that I feel like have a while until they openly accept AA girls, and I feel like their issue lies with their alum and not the current girls in the house. 8/10 isn't a bad deal. If you are worried about status (you shouldn't be), there are houses on EVERY tier that will welcome you with open arms.
